Abstract: The method is for determining a value characterizing blocking at an operating station for dispatching individual units, where the station operates in a stop-go mode whereby unit movement is stopped or units are allowed through. The values is determined used a detector for measuring the filling time between the beginning of a block or stop phase and the continuous loading of the detector and comparison with a reference filling time. The characteristic value is set at one value when the reference filling time is exceeded and another otherwise. <??>Independent claims are also made for methods for determining the filling time requirement and the backwash length.

Abstract: A support structure flange preform resembles the Greek letter "pi" and has a base with two legs extending therefrom. The preform is composed of a composite material that is formed from tows of woven or braided fiber. The tows are oriented to extend throughout each the base and legs. The preform may be either impregnated with a suitable thermoset resin, or may be unimpregnated so that resin may be infused at a later step of the overall manufacturing process. Two of the preforms are joined to a sine wave-shaped web of the structural beam. The web is formed from uncured, thermoset resin sheets that are reinforced with oriented fibers. The web has two outer laminates that sandwich a syntactic or foamed resin layer in between. The legs of each preform straddle one edge of the web and are shaped to both sides to the precise contours of the web. A laminate strip is positioned against the base of each preform to create a pair of flanges for the structural support member. The assembled structure is then heated and cured. The web and/or flanges of the structure also may be configured with alternating beads, tapered in either the vertical or horizontal direction, or inclined at non-orthogonal angles.

Abstract: The present invention provides a polyethylene glycol-conjugated erythropoietin (PEG-conjugated EPO) prepared by PEG conjugation on the lysine residue at position 52 of native erythropoietin (native EPO). In order to achieve more sustained efficacy without losing physiological activities of native EPO, a glycoprotein rich in sugar chains, there has been a need to develop a PEG-conjugated EPO with significantly sustained efficacy by introducing a controlled number of PEG molecules at controlled positions. This PEG-conjugated EPO addresses such a need and provides more sustained efficacy.

The coated sheets have a high oxygen barrier, with preferred OTR values (at 23° C. and 0% RH)<10 CM<SUP>3</SUP>/m<SUP>2</SUP>/day. Preferred nano-particles are biopolymers such as starch and the coating is preferably substantially free of wax which has been found to reduce oxygen barrier effectiveness. Coatings components of small molecules or oligomers such as biomonomers (e.g. sucrose) have also been found to enhance oxygen barrier properties of a particulate coat whether the particles are micrometer or nanometer sized. Coating compositions, coated films, coating processes and packaged articles are also described.
